".init" should simply mean "the default bit state of the object". Let's not make it into anything more complicated than that.
I guess this is the root of disagreement. There is no place in documentation that says that "T.init" is in any way unsafe or dangerous, I see it as a perfectly casual feature often used in any kind of generic code. Putting it in the same league as cast which is explicitly designed to punch holes in the type system? No way.
